** New optional parameter COUNT added to the "-data-write-memory-bytes"
command, to allow pattern filling of memory areas.
+* GDB now supports the "mini debuginfo" section, .gnu_debugdata.
+ You must have the LZMA library available when configuring GDB for this
+ feature to be enabled. For more information, see:
+ http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/MiniDebugInfo
+
*** Changes in GDB 7.5
* GDB now supports x32 ABI. Visit <http://sites.google.com/site/x32abi/>

+@section Debugging information in a special section
+@cindex separate debug sections
+@cindex @samp{.gnu_debugdata} section
+
+Some systems ship pre-built executables and libraries that have a
+special @samp{.gnu_debugdata} section. This feature is called
+@dfn{MiniDebugInfo}. This section holds an LZMA-compressed object and
+is used to supply extra symbols for backtraces.
+
+The intent of this section is to provide extra minimal debugging
+information for use in simple backtraces. It is not intended to be a
+replacement for full separate debugging information (@pxref{Separate
+Debug Files}). The example below shows the intended use; however,
+@value{GDBN} does not currently put restrictions on what sort of
+debugging information might be included in the section.
+
+@value{GDBN} has support for this extension. If the section exists,
+then it is used provided that no other source of debugging information
+can be found, and that @value{GDBN} was configured with LZMA support.
+
+This section can be easily created using @command{objcopy} and other
+standard utilities:
+
+@smallexample
+# Extract the dynamic symbols from the main binary, there is no need
+# to also have these in the normal symbol table
+nm -D @var{binary} --format=posix --defined-only \
+ | awk '@{ print $1 @}' | sort > dynsyms
+
+# Extract all the text (i.e. function) symbols from the debuginfo .
+nm @var{binary} --format=posix --defined-only \
+ | awk '@{ if ($2 == "T" || $2 == "t") print $1 @}' \
+ | sort > funcsyms
+
+# Keep all the function symbols not already in the dynamic symbol
+# table.
+comm -13 dynsyms funcsyms > keep_symbols
+
+# Copy the full debuginfo, keeping only a minimal set of symbols and
+# removing some unnecessary sections.
+objcopy -S --remove-section .gdb_index --remove-section .comment \
+ --keep-symbols=keep_symbols @var{binary} mini_debuginfo
+
+# Inject the compressed data into the .gnu_debugdata section of the
+# original binary.
